Quest #154 Nightmarey Questmas - Cringle Coast

Quest Requirements: Defeat a Night Knight enemy (Cringle Coast or Ice Grottos) with Holy Water

Quest Pre-Requirements: This is a DLC Quest

Reward: Cape of Good Karma; Mercury's Bandana when repeated

This quest begins by inspecting the bookshelf in Chris Cringle's house on the northeastern most island. You can only reach this island with the Starflight Express and there is more to do here than just this side quest. For more information about how to get here and what else you can find here I recommend reading my Walkthrough Chapter 9.

In addition to this quest you'll also find Side Quest #152 inside of this house and Side Quest #062 in the cave near the house. If you haven't been here before it's highly recommended you at least accept #062 as that quest gives you a very important reward.

For this quest what you need to do is defeat a Night Knight enemy with Holy Water. You can find the Night Knight enemies in a few different locations - the closest one is right outside Chris Cringle's house. I've found Night Knight enemies spawning in this area fairly commonly as well as in mid level Ice Grottos or in Realm of the Mighty.

Night Knights have about 250 HP and when you use Holy Water on them it only hits for about 25 damage. Don't forget to move the Holy Water into your character's inventories so you can use it during combat. I'd also recommend doing a little bit of damage to the Night Knights before spamming Holy Water on them - otherwise this will take awhile.

 

 

Reaching Realm of the Mighty After Beating the Game

In order to get back to Realm of the Mighty during post game you'll want to first complete Side Quest #039 and acquire Sterling's Whistle. This will allow you to summon the Starflight Express from anywhere on the world map - aside from letting you fly around the whole world map this vehicle also allows you to go to the uncorrupted version of Realm of the Mighty.

While flying go to Disembark but instead of Disembarking select 'No'. When you do this Sterling will then ask you if you wish to travel to the Realm of the Mighty, select 'Yes'. This is how you get to Realm of the Mighty. Once you're here in order to get to the "corrupted" version of the zone you will want to venture all the way up the light path and speak with Celestria at the top. She's able to teleport you to the version of Realm of the Mighty with these Great Troll enemies.
